What are these [censored] Free kicks for??

The 50’s are for players running in the protected area. They are being stupidly tight on the rule but we had a few paid like this last year but not 5 in a game. The Hawks game last year comes to kind, a few 50’s for trivial infringements.

The encroachment of the mark is RED HOT.  Dees need to pay attention to this rule of the week - we cant be giving the [censored] 50 m for nothing.

I don't think our players watch other games because we invariably do whatever is the infringement of the week the next day.

You'd think because we play predominantly on Sundays we'd have plenty of time to figure out the rule of the week.

What a pathetic rule

Passing on Curnow is Jason Taylor’s first mistake.

He went at pick 12 and even Carlton took him with their third pick of the draft.

Players develop beyond expectation, it happens.  It wasn't Taylor’s first miss and it won’t be his last.

He has his own rule book ? 

 

It’s something we need to get used to the stars have different rules, how many times does Martin either get someone high in a fend off or drop the ball when tackled, it happens a lot I hope the players are ready for duckwood on Sunday will be frustrating watching his frees

Who else did he miss?  I thought we were into Curnow until his convenient misdemeanour...

He’s missed plenty- it’s not a precise science.  

Salem over Cripps/Crouch

JKH over Darcy B-J

Brayshaw over Lever

Stretch over McGovern

Who washed Carlton’s shorts?

Looks like the white shorts got washed with the blue guernseys...back in the old days when colours ran in the wash.

And what's with the reflective bum-cheek highlights? I [censored] hate Carlton...wankers!

Great first half, but it lost all of its appeal in the second half. Carlton couldn’t hold it together and gave the ball away far too easiy, while Richmond couldn’t kick to save themselves and showed glaring holes in their defence. Couldn’t take much away from that game in terms of indicators for the rest of the season from either team.

It's painful seeing BT in the rooms afterwards. Mindless TV. 

He's a big fat turd ... I apologise if that comment caused offence to big fat turds

What this game said to me ...tigers won the premiership with a very soft draw & an injury free list ...take one player out of their side ...Dustin Martin....& they are gone !!! Also apply that to Essendon & remove Daniher & the same scenario occurs ...I am not going to mention the name of the player that Melb  could ill afford to lose ...(he is very tall), however very confident we cover all other positions ...Go Dees

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
